Founder member Jimmy Page had badgered his songwriting partner Plant to rejoin him and John Paul Jones five years after their last performance.

The DVD of their comebackat the O2 Arena – Celebration Day – is a huge seller across the globe.

When asked if Led Zep would ever do another concert, Plant said: “Have you seen the film? Did you enjoy it? Then we’ve done our job.”

Page, 68, had tried out replacements for Plant, 64, for a possible world tour.

But even he admitted reunion hopes were slim, saying: “The only way I can look at this is to be quite realistic and say that is quite an amount of time without a hint, whisper, wink or nudge about maybe doing something, so I don’t hold a lot of hope.

“But we can’t go out as Led Zeppelin without Robert Plant.”

Led Zep filled the O2 in London in 2007 with a oneoff comeback. Page, Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham’s son Jason wowed 20,000 fans and left millions hoping for a reunion world tour.
